BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra - Beyond   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

In opera, the orchestra creates the subconscious, the backstory, and the soundscape of the drama. Brooding and dark, overwhelming and passionate, or edgy and biting, the orchestra's sound guides our imagination, and when released from it's supporting role in the pit the result can be a thrilling experience of musical storytelling.This album celebrates the music of four of today's most distinguished opera composers. The Three-Piece Suite from Thomas Ades's modern classic Powder Her Face sparkles and sizzles; Nico Muhly's Liar Suite from Marnie is a taut psychodrama in symphonic form; Matthew Aucoin distills his moving operatic version of Sarah Ruhl's Eurydice into a haunting tone poem and sketches an as-yet-unwritten opera in Heath; and Jonathan Dove's luminously beautiful Stargazer, subtitled Inchan opera for trombone and orchestra,Inch offers a lyrical showcase for it's virtuosic soloist.For this album of world-premiere recordings, the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, led by contemporary music specialist Timothy Redmond, is joined by the virtuoso trombone superstar Peter Moore.

Rodd Keith - Las Vegas Souvenir   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Rod Rogers And the Travis Jay Jones Orchestra is actually an alias for multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Rodd Keith, who is the best known figure in the obscure musical sub-genre known as song poem music - a practice by which aspiring lyricists submit their wares, and for a fee the record company would put their lyrics to music. Keith wrote, sang and played a variety of instruments on many of these recordings which have since become highly collectible and quite rare. Presented here is the often described musical genius' quirky, Las Vegas themed album, recorded in the early to mid 1960's using the Chamberlin tape playback sampling keyboard, a forerunner of the modern synthesizer. All selections newly remastered.
